clifford_thornton Posted March 24, 2016 Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 I am a fan of Urge - got a UK pressing with the "Jazz Life" cover art. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdavenport Posted March 24, 2016 Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 Another from the recently bought collection.This appears to be tracks from two CTI albums (Summertime and From The Hot Afternoon). I've managed 20+ years of jazz listening without knowingly listening to any CTI albums. I like this.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tecnically A&M/CTI, but still, those are two very deceptively great recrds, Imo, with the first one not available on CD at anything resembling a reasonable price,too bad about that. Don't shy away from Desmond's CTI/CTI albums either, although they are on the whole less "productions" than the A&M ones. What kind of a release was this anyway, "Mayfair", curious about that.

You know, there is no sign of "Mayfair" anywhere but the front cover. It's a British record - the back cover states A&M, distributed by Pye Records. The labels have A&M, CTI and Creed Taylor's signature printed on them. The liner notes are fairly brief, with no band line-ups mentioned. I do like side 2, the tracks from "From the Hot Afternoon". Mine isn't this version, it's a British reissue from the 80s. Yet another player I've never previously heard, and probably wouldn't have bought.

Clunky Posted March 25, 2016 Report Share Posted March 25, 2016 Wynton Kelly/----Kelly blue------( Riverside) stereo ,dg, Better than average original Riverside pressing of really great session. Extreme dual mono with the instruments coming from one chanel only . Even so , not an unpleasant effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing to do with 'Mayfair' magazine (I think) It was a budget UK A&M imprint from the early 1970s. I have a Nat Adderley LP put out on this label and also a Wes Montgomery 'California Nights' cassette on the label stored away in my house somewhere. This is what passed for a UK batchelor pad jazz/MOR label back in the day ! Edited March 25, 2016 by sidewinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted March 25, 2016 Report Share Posted March 25, 2016 Those Nat A&M/CTIs with Joe Zawinul & William Fischer...Calling Out Loud & You, Baby are both fascinating records, especially the former. Just as often as not, only their "veneer" is "commercial", a good number of pretty interesting musical things happen underneath that veneer. And afaik, neither have been made generally available on CD for a good long while outside of Japan...corrections/directing welcome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
